Question

Which of these is the best example of translational motion?

Answer 1

B is the answer...........

Answer 2

The correct answer is B. A leaf blowing across the field

Explanation:

Translational motion is a term used in physics to describe the movement or change of position of one body. This means the body or object moves from one point to another. This is not the same as rotation in which a body moves over its axis but does not change its position. Additionally, translational motion is regulated by different factors such as time, speed or velocity. According to this, it is "a leaf blowing across the field" the best example of translational motion, because in this case there is a change of position in the body or leaf, while in other cases the body is static or there is only rotation but not a body moving from point to another.
